There should be a setting that says something to the effect of 'Take anything coming in on port 3000 and send it to this (local) IP address on the LAN.'

Edit: Some quick Google-fu turned up this guide:

Public port = 3000 (or some other port if you wanna change things up when using it in the outside world but why complicate things), Private IP address = your local IP address of your mac when plugged in, ususally 192.168.something.something or 10.0.something.something, and Private port = 3000.

This is exactly what I have done and I just can't punch through at all. Has anyone here successfully used an airport express base station to pull this off? I've got to figure this out.
